Chapter 1– S and S

— "Do you want to hang out?"

A sweet, lovely melody bursts into my ears as the music started to play on my playlist.

It is a beautiful Sunday morning, my family and I just got home from the park after eating breakfast at a restaurant. That was actually our second breakfast, because we only got to eat bread and drink milk and coffee before going to church to attend the first mass.

Malakas akong napabuntong hininga nang matapos kong i-apply ang topcoat na cutex sa kuko ko, "Hayyy! Finally, natapos rin."

Humalakhak ako at itinaas ang mga kamay sa ere para pagmasdan ang bagong kulay ng kuko ko. This time, I picked the white colored nail polish. Simple kasi itong tingnan kesa naman sa dating kulay ng kuko ko na rainbow themed, pero gusto ko rin yon kasi ang cute-cute tingnan.

Nang makuntento ako sa pagtitig sa mga kuko ko ay sinimulan ko nang ayusin ang mga gamit ko—ay syempre pinatuyo ko muna yung cutex para hindi masira. I faced the mirror after and I started to make weird faces, then I would laugh at myself again and again. Ang sarap ng ganitong pakiramdam, yung napapasaya mo ang sarili mo na kahit simpleng ngiti mo lang ay lahat ng stress sa katawan moy matutunaw nalang bigla at mawawala. I'm glad I can enjoy my own company.

I swayed my hips and threw my hands in the air as I started to dance along to the music. Singing, dancing, writing and making arts are my therapy. Genuine love and care are my weapons in this world full of malignant robots.

The song goes on...

And I could be a pretty girl

Wont ever make you blue

And I could be a pretty girl

Ill lose myself in you

Nah, mamaya ko na iisipin ang mga robots. This time, I'm gonna enjoy my self-time muna! Woo-hoo!

I was so blinded by you, now I cry

Just thinking 'bout the fool that I was

I was such a fool

Im alone now, but its better for me

I don't need all your negativity

Gumawa ako ng mga weirdong sayaw habang sumasabay sa lyrics ng kanta. I tried to throw it back pero nag mukha lang akong parang butiki. I whipped my hair back and forth, then I realized that I am iron deficient, so ang resulta nagpagewang gewang ako bago natumba sa sahig.

HAHAHAHA! This is fun!

As the song ended, another started to play. Midnight Rain by Taylor Swift.

Habang tumutugtog ang kanta ay nagpe-pretend akong nasa isang movie sa harap ng salamin. I did the same thing when "Death by a Thousand Cuts" started to play next.

Nang matapos ang aking concert, bumaba ako sa kusina para uminom ng tubig. Grabe, nadehydrate ako don a. Mag iisang oras ba naman na pagsigaw ng mga lyrics ng kanta plus mga abnormal na dance moves, sinong hindi made-dehydrate? Ang galing kasing magsulat ni mareng Taylor ng mga kanta e, yung mga lyrics tagos na tagos at sobrang nakakarelate pa, hayyy.

Dumeretso ako sa sala para hanapin ang ate ko pero walang tao do'n nang makarating ako.

Huh? Nanonood dapat 'yon ngayon e.

"Ateeee!" sigaw ko mula sa sala, walang sumagot. Tiningnan ko na rin sa backyard pero wala ring tao. Pati sina mama at papa wala rin? Asan na ba ang mga tao sa bahay na 'to?
